Scheduling an Appointment
If you are ready to schedule with us, we tried to make this process as seamless as possible for you.
Step 1
Call our office at 813-445-8575 or email us at info@empowertochange.com to schedule an appointment. We will ask for you to complete a form with your insurance information (if you decide to use insurance). Our administrative staff will verify your insurance and inform you of out-of-pocket costs (such as copay, deductible, or co-insurance). Should you agree to pursue therapy with us, we will schedule an appointment at the earliest convenience.
Step 2
We will give you access to create your own secure portal at Therapy Appointment where you will complete all the necessary paperwork to get started. These forms must be completed prior to your initial session.
Insurance Options
Empower to Change currently accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield, TRICARE, Cigna, United Healthcare, Aetna and Florida Blue. Because insurance providers may change, please call to confirm at 813-445-8575.
​
For out-of-network insurance, we can provide a bill to submit to your insurance company.
​
At Empower to Change, we believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health care, regardless of their financial situation. We understand that the cost of treatment can be a barrier for many people without insurance so we are committed to working with you to find a way to make treatment affordable.
​
If you are concerned about the cost of treatment, please do not hesitate to talk to us. We offer a variety of payment plans and can work with you to find a solution that fits your budget. We also have a sliding scale fee program, which means that your fees are based on your income.

For insurances we are NOT in network with, we have partnered with Mentaya to help our clients save money on therapy by using their out of network insurance benefits. Use this tool below to see if you qualify for reimbursement for our services for any insurance we are not in network with.
